"Paper Room" lyrics

You can't work out the codes in my head
Every time I try to second-guess the machine
I feel the laughter and the taunting logic
The lights are on but there's nobody home
I will never know the life that grows inside the wires
Opening all the doors, freezing me to the core

The paper room, it will defeat you
There was never anyone inside
The paper room, it will deceive you
Mortal confusion swimming against the tide

Perceptions pained our future regrets
And the grip that we're fighting to hold and curb the unknown
Becomes a coded brand new apocalypse
The surface cracked and we're so panicked and bent
There's a learning deeper than our minds could ever go
The inevitability, the death to the ego

The paper room it will defeat you
There was never anyone inside
The paper room it will deceive you
Mortal confusion swimming against the tide
